Cave Creek Funded!!
In Just Twenty Hours… That is one of our fastest Kickstarter campaign funding ever. So cool. Thank you, everyone! And now everyone who backs the Cave Creek Kickstarter gets a free electronic copy of my novel Thunder Mountain, the first in my western time travel series. Plus wow do we have a bunch of fantastic writer classes in the stretch goals. Check it out and then pass the word. Also, tonight (Friday) there will be more videos posted in the Shared World class about shared worlds and how this Kickstarter and the anthologies and my novel in the world works and will impact things. In other words, a little of…

Cave Creek Kickstarter Live!!
We’re Up and Going!! So anyone wants to see what this is all about, give it a check. And make sure you watch the really fun video that Gwyneth and I did (mostly her, I just talked.) Wow, this is a fun project. We have a gift card reward now, something that is limited and collectable and you can get all three anthologies on. And we added in retail discounts as well. And wow, are we giving away a lot of workshop stuff if this thing takes off. So pass the word and join the Shared Worlds class if you want to be a part of this. But first take…

Some Shared World Fun!
Cave Creek… Tomorrow, if all things work, a Kickstarter campaign will be firing up called Cave Creek. It’s going to be a fun one and I will announce it here when it launches, either tomorrow or Friday early. One thing to know. The Shared World Class is still open for sign-ups. It is where writers will be not only learning to write for shared worlds (and have been getting background for a bunch of months), but writing for Cave Creek anthologies. I will also be writing a Cave Creek novel in public, meaning I will keep track of the writing here, out in public, on this site, as I do…

Shared Worlds Update
The Nine Month Class is Officially a Go!!! We have enough writers signed up that I am now excited about doing the class even more than I was. Still room for more to sign-up, but we have enough now to really have fun. So take a look at the class, listen to my video a few posts back, and jump in. And I have been doing a bunch of research about Cave Creek over the last few days, just to double and triple check that I won’t be stepping on toes by inventing a brand new town and history in a made-up valley. There is a Cave Creek, Arizona, a…

Shared Worlds
SHARED WORLDS: What Are They, How to Do Them, and Why… This is a one-of-a-kind class. Not a workshop, not a lecture, not a study along. For years now, Kris and I have tried to figure out how to teach shared worlds as a topic to writers to get the most benefit for writers. Both of us have written in so many shared worlds, we couldn’t begin to count. From the major shared worlds of Star Trek and Star Wars, to the more subtle shared worlds of say the WMG Holiday Spectacular that we are running through Kickstarter right now. And everything in between. There are thousands of reasons indie writers…
